In my previous blog entry I posted some pictures related to the MVP Summit. The event was 4 days but I stayed a few days longer in Seattle together with my brother. In this post I’ll post some pictures of those days. Read the rest of this entry »

Last weekend I went to Belgrade (Serbia) with some friends. We went by car and the first thing we noticed when driving in Serbia is that almost all streetnames on the streets are written using the cyrillic alphabet, however, all the streetnames on streetmaps are written using the latin alphabet. So, even when you are standing in front of a plate with a streetname on, it’s sometimes difficult to find that streetname on our streetmap … But, we found our hotel after driving around in Belgrade for a while

Someone from Belgrade has shown us around a bit and also told us that we should come back in the summer because it’s much nicer then … obviously

I didn’t take a lot of pictures, basically only from the Belgrade Fortress which is pretty nice. Below is a view of the Danub (Donau) taken from the Belgrade Fortress.

A view of the wall surrounding the fortress:

When entering the fortress, you can see several tanks on display…

My new car, ordered in October, finally arrived It’s a metallic black Volvo S40 2.0. I already drove it from Belgium to Croatia and it drives very very good. The High Performance audio pack is definitely worth its money, it simply sounds great and with the MP3 support I don’t have to insert new CD’s every hour anymore.
Here are some pictures of it. Please note that these are not so great, since the car was already a bit dirty and wet. I will take some new pictures when I have cleaned it completely and when it’s sunny, somewhere in the summer probably. Read the rest of this entry »

I’m back from my skiing trip to Zell Am Ziller in Austria. The weather was great. Almost always blue sky and sunny on the skiing slopes since we often went above the clouds. Only one day it was foggy but then we got fresh snow that day, so good after all ;) The highest we went was around 2500 meters. All in all it was great

I never skied before so I took some lessons with some friends. The following is a picture taken from the skiing slope where we had our skiing lessons.

The following is a picture of me during our training.

After 4 days of lessons we were able to go down some red ski slopes which was pretty good according to our skiing monitor

I finally found some time to post some pictures of my holiday to Brasil Click a picture to get a larger version. Move your mouse over a picture to get a very brief description-balloon.
